2.3.1.2 Telephone Lines
This section is used to inform TalkSwitch about the lines or VoIP ports plugged into its back panel. Simply select a line and fill in the information. For each line there is a status message (“Line detected at initialization”) indicating if TalkSwitch detected a line plugged into the associated line port. If a line is plugged into a line port and is not detected, check your telephone line, and then choose File>Retrieve settings to update the screen.
Connection type:
Select what’s connected to the Line jack on TalkSwitch. Selecting VoIP means that you have a VoIP device plugged into the jack. This will now enable callers to select
In the “Phone numbers” section:
Enter the ‘main’ telephone number for the appropriate line connected to TalkSwitch. Enable the Distinctive Ring Numbers 1 and/or 2 if you have this service on the current line and wish to have incoming calls handled 'differently' on the basis of the distinctive ring. If you want Distinctive Ring numbers handled the same way as your 'Main' number, do not place a check mark in the box.
Next, enter the ‘Distinctive Ring’ telephone number for each of the Distinctive Ring numbers associated to this line. Distinctive Ring 1 corresponds to any double ring pattern. Distinctive Ring 2 corresponds to any triple ring pattern.
